Hall of Fame/ Movies – David MacDonald

David MacDonald

Director, Producer and Actor
David was born in Helensburgh on the 9th May 1904. In his twenties he managed a rubber plantation in Malaya, but went to America in 1929, and became interested in film-making. Cecil B. DeMille hired him as a production assistant, but it would seem from MacDonald’s subsequent career that he never developed the master’s taste for films of epic stature.
